From the Atlantic, here's a really interesting video about how aliens could detect the presence of planets around our sun from outer space.

I am absolutely convinced that at some point in the series, Jake mentions that he either planned to be a Navy pilot (if the Yeerks hadn't happened) or that it was something he daydreamed about as a younger kid. Or was interested in it. Or something. I can't for the life of me remember what book this was in or what he said about it.

Does anyone else remember this, or am I just adding my own imagination into the canon?

Here goes...the character who often seems to get the most negativity, and sometimes it's for good reason. I know my LJ folder is gonna be swamped this week, but I'll turn you loose anyway LOL

I do like the animal loving part myself...but there are things that some of you say about her that I can see as well...both positive and negative.
